@woot - what the heck? I clincked, there are tons left, go to waiting room, asked me to click on purchase and goes back to waiting room. My tab still open with "waiting room" - this is cruel... they were not sold out!

OVER 550 W00T CARTFULS as of 06/25/14. You're killing us with some wonderful items W000T!

OVER 9 years on W00T shopping and The W00T Forum, since 02/06 with now a whopping 38 Quality Posts L-M-A-O SMH! We do post quality information as do others that isn't recognized. Thanks for the 3 in 1 entire week! We're humbled. 3 additional noticed in 3 months. No more of our positive posts are noticed. Thank you W00T staff. Notice how many full carts get emptied. Thousand of Quality Posts for nonsensical information by some. Fair? SMH again. Glad we don't run our business the way W00T does since their Amazon affiliation.

CLICKING WHERE I CLICKED... it highlighted the whole URL (which is what Chrome does) and replaced all the text I entered with the single letter I was TRYING to just add to the end. Screwed by technology.

No idea if its changed, but it used to be where you went after there were enough orders placed to sell out, but not all the orders were confirmed yet. So you could get out on the good side if someone's credit card got rejected or (in this case) maybe if one of the orders came from someone who got a bag last night.

No. I had one window open with the partly parsed out url and then another with the next sale coming up (two monitors). If you sit there refreshing one window until the final sale shows up, gather the letters mentally that you need, then mouse over to the next window to click on it to enter the window, it'll just highlight all the letters of the window you just clicked. If you do it quickly (like you're quickly trying to click on an address bar and quickly enter some text), then you'll end up highlighting and replacing text instead of adding to text.

I think there should be send in pictures of all of the maps. Especially the cut out ones. Those would be fun!

Just got kicked to Sold Out... you have to be kidding me! I was logged in, I went to the link. It sent me to the Antechamber of Doom and left me there, but a friend I sent the link to, got in pretty quickly and got an order!?

Did you give the glue stick to the kids, to keep them quiet while you wooted? :P

I miss the days before the "Troubles". When we could actually see how many sold.

That and actually have a chance at getting a Buccaneers of Caribbean

You know, if they're going to stick is in the antechamber for eternity, they could at least provide some sort of entertainment. A chat room, a game, that sort of thing. Or, at least, end the danged thing instead of leaving us hanging. I know it's sold out, but I can't bring myself to close the dang thing.

I'm confused. I haven't been playing the map stuff, been too busy most of the day--but was on Woot, checking out the various parts, buying a little of this n' that, then back to main Woot, and it was this dumb lighter, but when I read the comments, apparently the lighter was the Buccaneers of Caribbean in disguise somehow. Can anyone explain all this? also, why does it show sold out, but seems to be stuck there (no new item)? Thanks for any enlightenment, all you more devoted map-playing wooters.

Ctrl Z doesn't undo text replacement? I had it in my clipboard so I just quickly copied and pasted it back into the address bar, but it's enough time to cost a Buccaneers of Caribbean No biggie though.
